Y0 Jamz that doesn't sound too bad! But I was wondering, are you are playing the equivalent of these chords durring the verse? It's kind of hard to hear from the recording , If not try em out and see how they work for you. I think they are correct but if not I am sure someone will correct me. Also on the riff right before the verse it sounds like you are playing open G then 2nd fret on the G then open again before going to the E chord, try going 1st fret to 2nd fret on the G string followed by the open B and E strings before hitting the E chord. Unless of course that is just the way you want to play it.

I recorded using my iPhone, and our second guitarist (off screen) was using a harsher tone than I like for this song, and often his guitar is slightly out of tune - I'm going to be giving him my tuning pedal to use (often) going forward. I'll be purchasing a decent quality audio recorder soon so I can get better sound.

anyhoo, thanks for any tips/advise you have to offer. I'm always looking for ways to improve my game!

Chris

Check it out Chris I even made you a short vid to illustrate the chords over the verse including that little riff that comes before it It is a little bit sloppy I know, I haven't been able to practice much lately. Anyways I hope this helps.
